JOSHUA DA Silva is set to make his Test debut after being called up for the second Test match against New Zealand as a replacement for wicket-keeper Shane Dowrich.
Da Silva has been in New Zealand as a Test reserve. He played for West Indies A against New Zealand A in a four-day contest last weekend.
A Cricket West Indies release on Monday said, “The Cricket West Indies selection panel has advised that fast bowler Kemar Roach and wicket-keeper/batsman Shane Dowrich are unavailable for the second and final Test match against New Zealand. Both players will return home – Roach owing to the death of his father and Dowrich for personal reasons.”
Dowrich picked up an injury during the opening Test and was unable to bat in either innings.
“The panel has called up young wicket-keeper/batsman Joshua Da Silva as a replacement for Dowrich, while middle-order batsman Nkrumah Bonner and left-arm fast bowler Preston McSween will remain with the squad as cover.”
Guyanese duo Shimron Hetmyer and Keemo Paul are still being monitored by the medical team.
“Additionally, left-hander Shimron Hetmyer is still under concussion protocols following the blow to his head sustained in the second T20 International, while all-rounder Keemo Paul is still being treated for a groin injury. They are both being closely monitored by the team’s medical staff and decisions on their availability will be made at a later date.”
The second Test match will bowl off at 6 pm, on Thursday, TT time.

SQUAD: Jason Holder (captain), Roston Chase (vice-captain), Jermaine Blackwood, Kraigg Brathwaite, Darren Bravo, Shamarh Brooks, John Campbell, Rahkeem Cornwall, Joshua Da Silva, Shannon Gabriel, Shimron Hetmyer, Chemar Holder, Alzarri Joseph, Keemo Paul
Standby: Nkrumah Bonner, Preston McSween
